vigi and gremlin becommign rare ?!?

I was checkign some year stats on armors and sudenly i noticed that some of the vigi and gremlin aprts show a sharp decline in sell amount.
i asume this means a much lower drop rate too.
Male gremlin harness is a good example.

is this a coincidence? or a further push too L ? is now the time to get me a set of both while i still can? or will these armors become useless someho in future?

and furthemore. is the drop cioncidence or planned?
and why isnt it with all items of that kind ?

it just puzzles me

to be sure i ll pick up a set i guess

cheerz

I'm surprsised Vigi is still so popular...

I expect all the low end armours to be totally overtaken by L armours just like all the UL guns ...

yea but considering that for an L armor u have to pay over 1k peds / piece i think Vigi will be popular a very long time. and it is very eco to hunt drones (i would not waste an L armor on those )

Good. It makes my Vigi set worth more. Also I don't believe there are any coincidents in EU. If Vigi isn't dropping MA wants it that way.

I never did get a set of gremlin, but I have an almost full set of vigi (still not buying the helmet at such a price) which I still use occasionally.

I doubt anyone else will be dumping vigi anytime soon .....

I think the cause of low sales is different.

I've looted two Gremlin Armguards (M) recently, and I know someone who got a Harness (M). There were so many Armguards on the Auction that mine was unsold. So I would say that if the number of Gremlin sales is low it's because the demand has fallen so far that lots are unsold.

About a year ago I looted four Vigi pieces, but none since, so there does seem to have been a fall in the drop rate there.

gremlin arms are very common ... i tt-ed over 20 i think. the rarest part remain the gloves and i think that is because no one likes to kill those merps

I have been observing this for a while and it seems that the drop rate of armors such as vigi, gremlin (some parts of gremlin anyway) had decreased lately.
When I was new in the game, 3 years ago more or less, I looted 2 vigi helmets M within few weeks. Since then I was not that lucky, not even one drop....

Vigi parts (that goes to M more than F) are more expensive every month now. I started buying vigi about a year ago and I can remember paying about +10 for such parts like shins or gloves. I bought helmet and I considered it expensive at the time (+150-170)....
F harness of vigi within past half a year got 100ped more expensive.

It seems this is last moment this armors are available at reasonabe price. I think soon most of non L low and midium level armors will be replaced by L and prices of all will go up. Not as radicaly as vigi or neme, but still. We all saw that L jaguar, boar and bear were dropping, so I think prices of those unlimited will go up too and we will see limited vigilant and nemesis dropping.
It started with jaguar and it was no coinsidence. There never is coinsidence when it comes to loots like that. I think only better armors such as angel or shadow will remain unlimited and extremaly rare in loots.

Lucky I have vigi and gremlin

anyone noticed any other armors besides vigi and gremlin undergoing the same change?
